I recently received a newspaper article with obits including pics for men from the Glasgow area who died or were wounded in WW1
The names are
Private William M Frize, 2nd Gordon Highlanders
Private William McCaig, 1st Seaforth Highlanders
Private Robert McClive, 2nd Batt Black Watch
Private J Kirkwood, 1st Batt HLI
Corporal William Gray 1st/9th Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders
Private William Seddon, 2nd Batt Scottish Rifles
Private Robert Jeffrey, 1st Gordon Highlanders
Private William Dickson, 2ns Scottish Rifles
Private Adam Dallas, 2nd Batt Godron Highlanders
Private P Wallace 1st Batt Cameron Highlanders
Private J Drummond 1st Batt Black Watch
Private Michael Farrell, 2nd Scottish Rifles

If anyone would like a copy of the original please pm me...the pics are not very good being very dark, but I'll do my best
Sylvia

Hi Sylvia,
I just noticed your mention of Private Drummond of the Black Watch, and I suspect that he is my Grandfather's cousin, James, from Leven in Fife.
I'd appreciate a copy if you would be so kind, as I'm doing my family tree and all these bits of information help build a complete picture of our family's past.
Thanks Sylvia.
Jake

Hi Sylvia

I'd like the William Gray one please as I have a few in my tree in that era and he may be 'mine'.

Thanks,

Annie
